Hawks' Trent Forrest: Misses open practice due to illness
Rotowire
Hawks head coach Nate McMillan said Wednesday that Forrest didn't participate in Atlanta's open practice due to a non-COVID illness, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.
It's unclear if the ailment is related to the same bug currently affecting Dejounte Murray (illness), but Forrest was one of several players to miss Wednesday's open practice. Provided the illness doesn't linger, Forrest should be available for the Hawks' preseason opener against the Bucks on Oct. 6.

Hawks' Trent Forrest: Signs two-way contract with ATL
Rotowire
Forrest signed a two-way contract with the Hawks on Monday, Brad Rowland of PeachtreeHoops.com reports.
Forrest appeared in 60 games for Utah last season and averaged 3.3 points, 1.8 assists and 1.7 rebounds in 12.8 minutes, but he was not extended a qualifying offer by the Jazz ahead of the deadline. With Trae Young, Dejounte Murray and Aaron Holiday likely garnering the majority of minutes at point guard, Forrest projects to be an emergency option in case one of the aforementioned trio suffer injuries.
Forrest was not extended a qualifying offer by the Jazz on Thursday, making him an unrestricted free agent, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
Jones notes there's interest in working something out between the two sides during free agency. Forrest appeared in 60 games for Utah last season and averaged 3.3 points, 1.8 assists and 1.7 rebounds in 12.8 minutes.
